Astonishing Success.

It is the duty OF every person who has
used Boschee's German Syrup to let its
wonderful qualities be known to their
irierds in curing Consumption, severe
Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneumonia and in
fact all throat and lung diseases. No per.
son can use it without immediate relief.
Three doses will relieve any case, and we
consider it the duty of all Druggists TO rec
ommend it to the poor dying consumptive.
at least 10 try one bottle, as $4,000 dozen
bottles were sold last year, and no one case
where it failed was reported. Such medi-
cine as the German Syrap cannot be too
widely Known. Ask your druggist about it
Sample bottles to try, sold at 10 cents

THE MARIETTA
MARBLE WORKS.

McClatchy & Bailey, little more
than two years ago, opened up
marble yard in Marietta. The bust
ness has grown beyond our most San
guine expectations, till within the
last few months we have had large
orders waiting from some Of the
largest cities in the South. We now
have several agents who send us or
ders almost every day, and number
of hands constantly employed finish
ing up work. Mr.. Bailey as a sculp-
tor has no equal in the South. There
is now in the yard ready for ship
ment, monuments from SIS to $500.
Would be glad to have any person
interested to call and examine be-
fore they are shipped. We have no

Ice IN THE SUseUEHANNA.-An unsuc-
cessful attempt was made yesterday at Port
Deepest to break the ice gorge with dyna-
mite, and after some hours of hard work the
scheme was abandoned. There was move
ment of the ice about 230 O'Clock in the
afternoon, and the water in the main street
rose several feet. Reports from up the river
are that heavy ice is coming down in I'm
mense quantities. The worst is not yet, Is the
general supposition, and should the gorge
opposite Port Deposit continue TO resist the
accommodating pressure from above the final
result cannot De conjectured, and the the s !;
pense is fearful. Trains on the Columns
and Port Deposit road cannot approach
nearer than a mile on either size of Port
Deposit. as the tracks are covered with ice
and water. Not more than three families :,
living below the main street remained all
night in their houses. Watchmen were on
the lookout all night to give warning 10 case
there was any further rise in the river.

When the Corean revolt took place about
two years ago, Mr.. Kim Ok-ktim, a promi-
nent liberal politician of Corea, was ban
ished to the Ogasawara Islands, after having
vafnly sought exile In Japan. Recently IL
was proposed by his friends to raise sub-

American institutions, for which he has al

Lord Charles Beresford, junior Lord of
the British Admiralty, has resigned ON ac-
count OF what Court authorities declare to
be grave breach of discipline and an insult
to the Queen committed by him. During a
naval review at Spithead, while the Queen
was receiving the captains of the fleet in the
cabin OF the royal yacht Albert and Victoria.
Beresford, who was on board the yacht sig
nailed to the Enchantress, aboard which was
his wife, telling her to go to another vessel
where he would meet her. A reporter learned
of the incident, and the Times published a
story of 1t on Monday. Lord Charles, the
functionaries say, had no option except to
resign. He has been asked to withdraw his
resignation. To send private signal from
royal yacht with the Queen on board is
something for which the English can find no
precedent
